Global Jazz from beyond the cutting edge…
Six accomplished musicians playing original instrumental compositions, which combine the harmonic and improvisational traditions of North American Jazz with the rhythmic and melodic influences of Afro-Cuban, Brazilian and Arabic music. The result is a fresh and unique concept, which creates aural excitement as it organically mixes genres giving birth to new and twisted musical directions.

Strong compositions, wicked grooves, and creative interplay that takes it to the edge.
